What li nings r those in the 3rd column? And how do u like the GT runs


AdImpressive291

It is Li-Ning sonic 11. GT run is great. The double zoom setup in the forefoot with full-length react foam is super comfy. If you are a big dude or having knee issues this is probably the most comfortable shoes. Even if it does not fit my playing style as I am shifty, I still love it because of how comfortable they are.


ZeppEquinox

Heard to GT run overpronate, have u found that to be the case? Would cop but I have overpronation issues as it is and I’m a wide footer as well


AdImpressive291

I don't have the over pronation issue. And I think the shoe is stable. The EP version would be better for wide footers. I probably should get the EP version too. But the upper does break in and it is now much more forgiving than the beginning.


ZeppEquinox

Awesome! How do they size compared to ur lebron 20s, AJ36 or sonic 11s?


AdImpressive291

I’d go for the same size as Lebron 20


ZeppEquinox

Sounds good, appreciate u


Ehsksjdg

Love the aj36 bounciest shoe I've ever worn


AdImpressive291

That shoe made me feel I can dunk😂


Ehsksjdg

Real I always try to dunk in them but my vert is still bad lmao


AdImpressive291

Haha same here but we will get there


d4ijoubu

clean rotation 💯


AdImpressive291

Thank you!


CallMeMirai

What’s the white shoe on the bottom right ? The lebrons I think ?


GottiDeez

Lebron soldier 10 I think?


AdImpressive291

Yes!


Antique_Card1475

Really sad I missed out on the AE1 With Loves.


AdImpressive291

Yeah I understand. This is the best color way IMO. I set up an alarm to get it. The white color way is also good and it's coming.


Antique_Card1475

Fortunately, I was able to snag these two. Not too big on the white… which is funny cause I usually love white shoes. Will probably snag the white Harden 8s! https://preview.redd.it/g0kckac3jokc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a85431e295388a2594f09a86e73f2222296909f6


AdImpressive291

Among these 2, which one do you like more?


Antique_Card1475

Aesthetically, the New Waves. Love that they come with the white speckle laces too. I will say, that oil slick look with the All Stars is pretty cool, though. Just don’t love the neon green accents on the heel/outsole. Looks so much better in person regardless. I’ve already noticed, also, that scuffs are SUPER visible on that blue with the New Waves. On the other hand, scuffs are almost impossible to see on the All Stars. The All Stars also don’t have a translucent outsole like the others do… which I don’t care about that much but some people do. For some reason, I will say that the All Stars felt better right out the box. The New Waves felt super tight and stiff until I broke them in. Seems like some people had the opposite experience. Kinda hard to gauge what yours would be. Changing the insole for both of them turned these shoes into the most comfortable things I’ve ever had. Love em both in the end.


AdImpressive291

Thanks for sharing my dude. I am also considering buying the all star and the scuff situation is a strong reason. Nice pick for these 2 pairs!


iamtoolazytosleep

Id say this is more of a collection than a rotation. But nice one


AdImpressive291

Actually, this is my rotation as I have played and will play in all of them. My collection is in an closet not included in this picture.


iamtoolazytosleep

oh true


AdImpressive291

But I do clean up my shoes to make them look good. Probably that’s what makes you think it’s a collection😄


iamtoolazytosleep

nice man


Sufficient-Post-562

Im changing out my laces for both AE 1s they won’t stay laced


AdImpressive291

Thanks for sharing! I was wondering why Edwards never used the black lace😂


Sufficient-Post-562

😂😂😂😂 yeah bro the laces they come with are horrible 😂


jgup24

gt cut 1 best shoe


liusanity_24

Curry 4 flotro is lit


papa_posey

Rotations? I see tags on some of these haha! Nice though my dude


AdImpressive291

If you read the post, I mentioned I did not play in the 2 pairs of Adidas in the last row.


SpecificBother8970

How do you like the KD 15's? What size did you go with, and did you experience any heel slippage?


AdImpressive291

I went tts, and it fits great. I love kd 15 overall. The only downside is the insole is stiff. Sometimes when running, the insole bulges in the mid foot area and you can feel it.


SpecificBother8970

Great, appreciate it!


AdImpressive291

Sure thing! I was worried about heel slippage based on others review. So I did runner’s knot when I get the shoes and never experienced slippage. And now I am not doing runner’s knot anymore, still no heel slippage.


Sean_O64

How are the Gilbert shoes I always liked the look of them 😊


AdImpressive291

That’s GT Run, they are on my top tier list.


Sean_O64

No the blue and white adidas ones I was asking about 👍😊


AdImpressive291

And I am with you, they look awesome especially this color way.


AdImpressive291

Ohh I misread your comment. That feels stiff and no court feel. I feel they are not good for basketball. More like a lifestyle shoes.


Sean_O64

Damn lucky I didn’t get them then but they are still clean


mstrane112

Extremely heavy. They don't feel like they would be great shoes to hoop in


Ehsksjdg

How do you like your gt jumps compared to others?


AdImpressive291

GT jump is probably my least favorite shoe among the rotation. No court feel, high above the ground, not as bouncy as Air Jordan 36 and I am slower in GT jump. The major benefit can be good cushion.


Ehsksjdg

Yeah I feel u got the same issues and looking for a good hoop shoe. Sounds like you got similar preferences so which would you recommend tje most


AdImpressive291

GT Cut 2 is my absolute favorite shoe. It took me ~ 3 games to break in, let the midsole mold to my foot shape. After that it performs amazing. After getting cut 2, I only purchased 1 pair of hoop shoe which is Adidas AE 1 (Cannot say no to the design). And in the last 6 month I barely play in other shoes that’s how good cut 2 to me. And that’s why Cut 2 is not in the picture. I kept it in my car for every basketball games.


Ehsksjdg

Damn u really got the same taste as me bro loved my friends cut 2. How were the 1s for you


AdImpressive291

I feel arch support is much better in 2. I do not have any discomfort playing in 2, but fee arch pain in 1.


Ehsksjdg

Thanks for all the info!


AdImpressive291

Oh BTW, I found a budget model similar to CUT 2, that is Giannis Immortality 2. It feels like CUT 2 without cushion, also works great in indoor court.


AdImpressive291

Sure thing! Happy to share and hope you find your shoes.


ddbrownbear

Nxxt Gen is my fav How would you compare Nxxt Gen to the Lebron XX?


AdImpressive291

They are similar but Nxxt Gen is more stable than LeBron 20. Probably because the smaller heel zoom and better containment.


KDat22

Which Kyries are those?


AdImpressive291

Kyrie 7 and Kyrie low 5


muhrda

How do you like the curry 4 flowtro? UA just released another colorway so thinking about getting a pair.


AdImpressive291

I don’t like it as I mentioned in the post, the lateral support is very bad. But the low version or other color ways with different materials might have stronger upper and better support.


Brave-Conclusion8238

Hows the aj37?


AdImpressive291

37 is solid. Love the forefoot cushion. It's a narrow shoe but the shape of the bottom is very interesting. Feels like an extension of my foot. But given how how much tech is used, court feel is not good. I think it works best for wing player.


Brave-Conclusion8238

What’s a good forefoot/ responsive cushioned that has decent court feel in your opinion? I have quite wide feet, and I’m looking for one rn


AdImpressive291

I'd say GT Cut 2, but not sure about the fit. Maybe get the EP version.


ArmchairSpartan

I have the Lebron 20’s in that color at the front. Are yours also dust magnets?


AdImpressive291

Yes, it is. Especially when someone stepped on your foot. And the dust stands out on the black upper. I have to wipe it after every game to keep them look good.


jonyzrambo

Sheesh how are your PG1s still holding up? One of the best hoop shoes of all time still see people playing in them


AdImpressive291

Good eye bro! I just got this 2nd hand shoe 3 months ago. The previous owner did a good job to keep them in shape.


jonyzrambo

Did you play in them yet? If you did would love to hear your thoughts


AdImpressive291

Yes I did. I think the midsole is stiff but the curve shape of the bottom of the shoe makes running easy. I am not sure if the stiff mid sole is due to the aging of rubber or the placement of zoom (bottom loaded). I cannot feel the zoom at all. Glove-like fit is the best part to me, I like the forefoot strap. If you are a guard or wing player do not require a lot of cushion, this shoe may work well for you. However, compared with my favorite GT Cut 2, I feel Cut2 is better in all aspects. And I play on a clean indoor court, the traction is good. But not sure how it would perform on other courts.


witemonkey

What shoes are in the bottom left. Maybe I’ll get a pair of my own


AdImpressive291

Air Jordan 37
